S2R-S4R-CTA

Final Conference on Next-Generation Train Control Monitoring System (NG-TCMS) solutions

Together with its complementary action CONNECTA-2 (826098, www.s2r-connecta.eu), Safe4RAIL-2 organized a final online event, which took place on 30th June 2021. The conference offered a great opportunity to receive an insight into Next-Generation Train Control Monitoring System (NG-TCMS) solutions. Participants could establish a proactive and instructive dialogue with both projects’ partners and participate in the demonstrations, showing key technology test cases. This second edition of Safe4RAIL and CONNECTA initiatives continued the specification activities started in previous projects, covering the implementation of key technologies for NG-TCMS, such as Drive-by-Data, Functional Distribution Framework, and Wireless TCMS to achieve TRL-5. Technologies were also deployed in relevant urban and regional laboratory scenarios. The Final Conference welcomed participants from railway undertakings, technology suppliers and manufacturers, safety experts, and authorities as well as academic participants in the domain of train control monitoring systems. The event was a great success, attracting 118 participants from all over Europe and Asia.
